Yak features

Yak is a group of cows that live in a harsh environment with an altitude of 3000 m or more. Generally, yak hair is not well known, but its soft hair is called "down" and is a very high-grade fiber, comparable to cashmere. That's because you can only get 100g from one yak. The higher the altitude, the better the quality of yak hair. Yak has six characteristics.

1. Heat retention: 10-15% higher heat retention than merino wool
2. Antibacterial property: Yak hair absorbs sweat and evaporates to the outside, so it is said that it is hard to get odor, so you can prevent odor even in situations where it is difficult to wash.
3. Breathability: Yak hair has the property of absorbing moisture from the body and releasing it to the outside environment, without the sweaty odor or moist feeling that you feel when wearing chemical fibers.
4. Softness: The thickness of "Yakdown" that can be taken from the long curled hair of yak is about 14 to 20 microns, and it is a wonderful touch.
5. Durability: A fiber that is more durable than wool.
6. Resistance to static electricity: It is said that the hair quality is less likely to generate static electricity than wool or cashmere.

With a sweet color like warm cocoa, it brings out femininity. The elegant skirt, of course, gives a casual impression with denim, and it is a handy item in winter where you can enjoy various coordination with bottoms.
